Explaining this self-recounting of what is extremely difficult, there are four clauses: first, 'I in the five turbidities...' recounts appearing in a defiled realm; second, 'attaining anuttarā samyaksaṃbodhi' recounts realizing the superior fruit; third, 'preaching for the sake of sentient beings...' recounts bestowing the secret method; fourth, 'this is extremely difficult' concludes that being able to perform these three difficult deeds is indeed difficult. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.248](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1757.1.248) - [Next: 1.250](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1757.1.250) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1757.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1757~en-mt.1.249) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [阿彌陀經通贊疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1758.3.96) — Classical Chinese - [阿彌陀經要解](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1762.1.154) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1757.1.249](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1757.1.249) · Pramāṇa
